Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Evidence of the ability to:

research an extensive range of printmaking techniques to inform own work practice

refine printmaking technique through a process of thorough experimentation and practice to create a coherent body of printmaking work which:

shows a command of chosen techniques

demonstrates the development of an individual style

supports own ideas for work.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

describe copyright, trademarks, design licences and permissions relevant to producing print works

identify an extensive range of information sources that support research in printmaking practice

summarise, for historical and contemporary printmaking, the main cultural, sociological, philosophical, aesthetic, political and commercial influences

explain, for own work practice and that of other artists, the relationship between printmaking technique and particular effects and design ideas

explain, for an extensive range of printmaking techniques, how they work to achieve effects and their limitations and constraints in achieving effects

describe a range of creative thinking techniques and how they can be used to encourage new ideas

describe, for the elements and principles of design, the detailed characteristics, complex interrelationships, use in prints and how they may be challenged

discuss formal and informal professional development opportunities for professional arts practitioners working with prints

explain key safety requirements for printmaking work.
